Supplementary information
During the registration week, appointments can also take place without prior registration. Please understand that in this case waiting times for families without an appointment may be unavoidable.
If more children are registered than we are allowed to accept, there are various criteria that are taken into account in the necessary procedure.
"The criteria according to which a child is accepted are defined by law.
If the number of applications exceeds the school's admission capacity, the head teacher will first consider possible cases of hardship when deciding on admission to the school." The following criteria are then used in the selection process:
- Siblings
- Balanced ratio of girls and boys
- Lottery procedure
